内蒙古城镇居民对草原生态补偿支付意愿及其影响因素研究

Urban Residents’Willingness to Pay for Grassland Ecological Compensation in Inner Mongolia:Exploring Influencing Factors

将“草原环境受益者”城镇居民纳入补偿主体研究其支付意愿,为推进市场化、多元化草原生态补偿机制提供理论参考依据。利用内蒙古12个盟市339份城镇居民调查数据,运用条件价值评估法(CVM)测算居民对草原生态补偿的平均支付意愿,在此基础上构建单因素和多因素Logistic回归模型分析生态保护补偿支付意愿的影响因素。结果表明:79.06%的城镇居民愿意为草原生态保护补偿付费,每人每年的支付意愿为107.46~135.92元,进一步测算平均支付意愿为27.30~34.50元/hm^(2);影响城镇居民支付意愿的关键因素按贡献度大小排列分别为受访者对草原生态保护重视程度、受教育程度、家庭月均收入和家庭居住地。

This study investigates the willingness to pay(WTP)for grassland ecological compensation among urban residents in Inner Mongolia,a region with significant grassland ecosystems.Including urban residents as beneficiaries the compensation framework holds promise for promoting market-oriented and diversified grassland ecological compensation mechanism.A survey of 339 urban residents across 12 Inner Mongolian cities was conducted to estimated WTP using the contingent valuation method(CVM).Univari⁃ate and multivariate Logistic regression models were employed to analyze factors influencing residents’pay⁃ment intentions towards ecological protection compensation.The results showed that 79.06%of urban residents expressed a willingness to pay for grassland ecological compensation.The estimated annual indi⁃vidual WTP ranged from 107.46 to 135.92 yuan per year,translating to an average WTP of 27.30 to 34.50 yuan per hectare per year.The most significant factors affecting WTP,in order of decreasing impor⁃tance,were perceived importance of grassland ecological protection,average monthly household income,education level,and family residence.
